CFSocket actually, but close enough :)

It is basically only really useful for asynchronously event based polling for data, etc..

I consider it a layered enhancement to BSD sockets ;)

Just contributing my 2 cents!

Hi Nathan,

Hello, I'm new to this list so sorry if this was just covered....although my
searches indicate it has not. My question is does anyone have a good
resource on the net or have information on socket programming in Cocoa.
Basically, I want to know how to initilize a new socket to listen and allow
other sockets to connect to it and send it a simple message, such as a
string. Does each new socket have to be put into a new thread to allow
multiple connections? Any information on setting up sockets would be great,
thanx.

I would suggest that you subscribe to MacNetworkProgramming.
There are many possibilities for dealing with sockets on Mac OS X.
You can use a framework (SmallSockets for instance, try Google or
VersionTracker),
Open Transport (which you won't be interested in), BSD sockets API (as
you know it from Linux and Unix),
and I think Apple made a framework as well, I think NSSocket rings a bell..

SmallSockets can be downloaded from:

<http://smallsockets.sourceforge.net/>


Love,
Jens
